May the fork be with you

Okay, it's September 2, 2014. A large portion of the simming community is playing the new release of Sims 4 today and probably staying up pretty late to continue playing. My copy arrived around 4:00pm today (I prefer getting a disk over just a download, and I needed to get some work done before I could play today), so I've only had a few hours of Sim 4 time.

But, it didn't take long to get my first bonk from the game. The seated sim in this screenshot is Amy Moore, a sim I created in the Create A Sim demo (and shared to the gallery). Here she has just told her husband Harvey about the results of their recent woohoo. It seems he was so excited that he held onto his fork from his most recent meal - it's the white-ish looking thing stuck to his right hand...

I don't know what he intended to do with that fork, but after a few more interactions and another meal or two, he's not holding the fork any more.

That's enough play time for tonight. I've got work to prepare for, and I'll put together a more complete post later with more detailed thoughts and analysis of the new version soon.
